Oh my...

Congratulations are in order for The Doctor and his wife! They are expecting their 2nd child. We heard recently that she is 3 months along so that sounds like the newest 'wee lil' med student' will be arriving some time in Feb of '07.

Doc obviously subscribes to the Rosco philosophy when it comes to family planning. "Have'em close together, sure you won't sleep for 2-3 years straight but hey it'll all be over someday".

Good luck Doc!

Rumblings:


There are some rumblings about getting together for some cards soon as well as Rosco trying to do a laser tag thing.

Stay tuned we'll see how this shakes out.

Also mark your calendars boys the Wednesday before Thanksgiving (11/22) night out is fast approaching. Any ideas for venue are always welcome (e-mail Dancer or me privately with actual places).

I am all set:

Not that I was all that interested 10 years ago but I can't watch any of this Jonbenet Ramsey thing. I don't want to see that poor girl traipsing around in the beauty queen outfits and I certainly can't stand to look at that creepy cat they arrested in Thailand. We are living in a sad society when this is the only thing the national media can find to put on the news every frickin' night.

2 other points:
There's something a bit "off" with any parent who would put their 4 or 5 year old daughter in those kinds of suggestive outfits, makeup etc. Somethin's not quite right there.

Imagine, if you will, if this poor girl was not a "beauty queen". Would there be the same kind of national coverage? How many young girls who didn't look like her have been killed/missing/abused in the past 10 years? Why has there not been the same kind of interest or coverage from the media about them?

I know the answer, do you?

Remember the olden days?

Memba when we all used to get together and play cards or have a few pops or even play some golf?

We should get back to doing some of that stuff sometime, eh?

Hub's Birthday!

A thousand pardons for missing yet another Jake birthday (yesterday) this time it was Hub's.

It's only natural that his birthday would be in the middle of the summer as he enjoys any and all summertime activities and would be able to take full advantage of the "free birthday drink at the tiki bar".

In addition to surviving another year Hub and his wife (the Hub-stress) are expecting their 2nd child. Nothing but fun times ahead bro! Happy birthday and hope all is well.

Curses, foiled again!


I just have this thought of Bin Laden hobbling around in his cave like the wretched dirty ass piece of shit that he is, mumbling to himself like the Wicked Witch of the West.


(to dust off a quote from Scooby Doo)...
"and I would have got away with it, if it wasn't for those meddlin' Brits"

Great job by the British/American intelligence et al, for thwarting another attempt to kill innocent people in the name of "allah". Oh yes, it's a religion of peace - good one!

Not an "Open":

Here's a trinket that Lt. Stalkfleet gave to the boys at this years Jake. It holds exactly 12 ounces of tasty beverage. Very nice Stalkfleet, there's no question it was worth the $9 each.

However...
I would be remiss (and I don't really even know what that means) if I didn't mention that Jake Day and the Jake Scramble is not an "Open" so much as it is an "Invitational". This thing of ours is not open to any slug who wants to participate. It's just for us slugs and cats we feel would be worthy and up to the challenge.

Laws for Men:

Okay - we've all seen these kinds of lists but I'm running out of stuff to write so I've widdled this list (of like 25) down to what I considered to be the best 10. Have a ball...

}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

1: Moaning about the brand of free beer in a buddy’s fridge is forbidden. However complain at will if the temperature is unsuitable.

2: When stumbling upon other guys watching a sporting event, you may ask the score of the game in progress, but you may never ask whose playing.

3: Only in situations of moral and/or physical peril are you allowed to kick another guy in the nuts.

4: Friends don’t let friends wear Speedos. Ever. Issue closed.

5: If a man’s fly is down, that’s his problem, you didn’t see anything.

6: Women who claim they “love to watch sports” must be treated as spies until they demonstrate knowledge of the game and the ability to drink as much as the other sports watchers.

7: Never hesitate to reach for the last beer or the last slice of pizza, but not both, that’s just greedy.

8: Never talk to a man in a bathroom unless you are on equal footing: i.e., both urinating, both waiting in line, etc. For all other situations, an almost imperceptible nod is all the conversation you need.

9: There is no reason for guys to watch Ice Skating or Men’s Gymnastics. Ever.

10: We’ve all heard about people having guts or balls. But do you really know the difference between them? In an effort to keep you informed, the definition of each is listed below:

“GUTS” is arriving home late after a night out with the guys, being assaulted by your wife with a broom, and having the guts to say, “are you still cleaning or are you flying somewhere?”

“BALLS” is coming home late after a night out with the guys smelling of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife on the ass and having the balls to say, “You’re next!”

Top 5 Hard Rock Albums Ever:

25 million people can't be wrong.

This album absolutely rocks. My personal favorite is 'Rock and Roll Ain't Noise Pollution' which is the last cut. It's a hard drivin' song that kicks ass. This is the quintessential 'flying down the highway with your top down' (this is a reference to a convertable car for those who aren't sure) type music.
